I'm 100% sure I can implement all ThunarVFS thumbnailers on top of tumbler in time for the Xfce 4.8 release. Same about the volume monitor backend for GIO to avoid a GVfs dependency. So why not merge the GIO branch now? Not much to say about this merge. It replaces ThunarVFS with GIO inside Thunar and Thunarx, something I've been working on over the past few months. It currently requires GVfs for volume monitoring and also (optionally) depends on tumbler for thumbnail generation. Enjoy. All .po files are going to be updated in the next commit.

README 3.02 KiB
What is it?
===========
Thunar is a modern file manager for the Unix/Linux desktop, aiming to be
easy-to-use and fast.
THIS BRANCH (migration-to-gio) IS CONSIDERED HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL! It is
used for the migration from ThunarVFS to GIO as part of a student thesis:
http://lunar-linux.org/~jannis/migrating-thunar-to-gio/
Required packages
=================
Thunar depends on the following packages:
- perl 5.6 or above
- GTK+ 2.6.0 or above
- libexo 0.3.2 or above
- intltool 0.30 or above
- libpng12 1.2.0 or above
- shared-mime-info 0.15 or above
- desktop-file-utils 0.10 or above
Thunar can optionally use the following packages:
- D-BUS 0.34 or above (strongly suggested)
- HAL 0.5.0 or above (esp. the libhal-storage devel package)
- freetype 2.0 or above (for the font thumbnailer)
- gamin 0.1.0 or above
- gconf 2.4 or above
- libexif 0.6 or above
- libjpeg 6 or above
- libstartup-notification 0.4 or above
- pcre 6.0 or above
- xfce4-panel 4.3.90 or above (for the trash applet)
Installation
============
The file 'INSTALL' contains generic installation instructions. For more
detailed information, visit the Thunar website at http://thunar.xfce.org/.
Debugging Support
=================
Thunar currently supports four different levels of debugging support, which
can be setup using the configure flag `--enable-debug' (check the output of
`configure --help'):
`full' Use this if you want to debug Thunar to locate a bug. The
build will most probably be noticably slower. This is also
recommended for people that want to develop Thunar stuff.
`yes' This is the default for SVN snapshot builds. It adds all
kinds of checks to the code, and is therefore likely to run
slower. Use this if you want to develop for Thunar (e.g.
writing Thunar extensions and such).
`minimum' This is the default for release builds, and presents the
recommended behaviour.
`no' Disables all sanity checks. Don't use this unless you know
exactly what you do.

Thunar supports the following standards/specifications:
* XDG Base Directory Specification
